Email has been sent to everyone to join the Strava club that lordofthemark creates for the team and (even if you've done it already) authorize FS to read your Strava (including private rides). Good luck and may the force be with you!

Sat, 19 Jan 2019 17:23:59 GMTI am waiting to hear back from a few team captains about filling out their rosters. Once every team has 10 legit riders signed up, I'll be able to determine if I can form another "Misfit Toys" team. And that will be your team name because I have deemed it to be so. :) I already have a volunteer to be the team captain and enough people on the wait list to form a team, so it's just a matter of getting all the existing teams squared away. Will hopefully get that done today or tomorrow. Be patient. Stick with me.

This is who I have on the wait list:

UPDATED now that the Misfit Toys team has been created. But that doesn't mean that just because you're on the wait list you won't be on a Freezing Saddles team. The folks assigned to Misfit Toys still have to do what everyone else had to do to be on a team. If anyone doesn't (or decides they don't want to play), then I'll replace them with someone on the wait list. And there's always a possibility that someone on one of the other teams has to drop out for one reason or another. So there's still hope! But even if you don't end up on a Freezing Saddles team, please play Reindeer Games and otherwise partake in all the fun and silliness that is Freezing Saddles!

UPDATED And another rider off the wait list!

Tue, 15 Jan 2019 12:45:31 GMT1. Please let me know if you actually have 10 riders on your Strava team or if they haven't signed up on your Strava team and you haven't heard from them.

2. If your missing rider(s) hasn't ridden (the most likely reason they're not on the team leaderboard).

3. If they have ridden, please ask them to re-authorize (the second most likely reason they're not on the team leaderboard).

I'm trying to figure out if we're missing 7 riders or if all the teams are good to go with their full complement of 10 riders. Thanx!

Sun, 13 Jan 2019 19:13:29 GMTI sent an email this morning to people who weren't showing up on the leaderboards.

1. The first thing to do is make sure you're on you Strava team. If you aren't, get in touch with your team captain and please get that done ASAP! If you aren't on your Strava team by Friday, you'll get dropped and replaced by someone on the wait list.

2. If you are on your Strava team but not showing up on the leaderboards, please re-authorize your Strava with Freezing Saddles: https://freezingsaddles.org/authorize We've been having Strava issues of late.

3. If the above doesn't work, wait a while and try again. If you're still having issues after 24 hours, please report to obscurerichard

4. If you haven't ridden yet, you won't show up on the leaderboards. But please confirm with your captain that you're a member of your Strava team and re-autborize Strava.

Extra points for creativity and the most FS19 members in the photo. Stay frosty my friends!

Sat, 12 Jan 2019 21:29:11 GMTI was surprised & disappointed how cold the balls of my feet were after three hours this morning in summer shoes covered by full neoprene booties. Before I cough up $$$ for winter road boots + another set of cleats, I wondered if anybody here has experience adding warm insoles (maybe like Pedag Solar insoles: wool + reflective foil) to their non-winter shoes...? Everything beside my toes and the cleat/pedal contact points were fine today, so I thought maybe insoles would provide just enough extra warmth.

Intros, team name suggestions, ride ideas and general info welcome here.

As for me, I commute from Greenbelt to DC most days, and often lead (usually short) social rides out of College Park on weekends -- if anyone's interested let me know!

Also, note that I had to reauthorize Strava to get my miles to show up on the freezingsaddles.org leaderboard -- it looks like Kitty has joined the Strava team but her miles aren't on the leaderboard yet... Here's the reauth link I think: https://freezingsaddles.org/authorize -Jeff

Fri, 11 Jan 2019 21:34:55 GMTFirst of all, that's what happens to people who don't buy me and the wizards who make the FS ones and zeros work beers at HH. :)

The most likely reason you don't see yourself on the FS leaderboard is because your team hasn't been put on it. I know Richard was trying to get all the team Strava club ID numbers last night. I've asked all the team captains to provide the web address for the Strava teams to Richard so he can get that done. Right now, it looks like Teams 1, 7, and 8 still need to be added.

Fri, 11 Jan 2019 15:07:57 GMTIt's not an absolute requirement, but I've been told it makes life easier (for whom, I honestly don't know) if you post the link to your team Strava club page on your team thread in the forum. There are no team Strava club page police, so up to y'all if you want to do it.
